President’s Message

September   2020

Well, our second outside General Meeting had a good turnout. Thanks to everyone for wearing a mask and practicing social distancing. Our thanks to Jim Ellis for the great talk on first aid. I hope everyone learned something from this great presentation. Our pancake breakfast went well. We fed 16 people with 48 pancakes, 25 sausage links and one gallon of orange juice. After breakfast, we had the Model T Garage with only Jim Ellis and Chris Craig working. Jim’s Model T’s rear brake lights needed repaired. It was a hot morning so most everyone stayed in the shade talking. It was a very nice get together. At lunchtime, we went to see Mark Hanna who turned 100 years old on 8-13-2020. We had 8 Model Ts and one Model A there at Marina Pacifica in Long Beach. Thanks to everyone that came with your cars. I know most of the people that went did not even know Mark. Thanks again. I know that it meant a lot to him, his family and friends that were there. Mark was our President in 1957. Please keep looking at the LBMTC web site for updates and changes to events. If a Tour gets planned it will also be on the website. John Bowman does a good job of keeping it up dated.
